Purpose To systematically review reported cases of Seckel syndrome (SS) and point out cases associated with central nervous system (CNS) vasculopathy and provide a summary of their clinical presentation, management, and outcomes including our illustrative case. Methods We conducted a search on the MEDLINE, PubMed, Google Scholar, and Cochrane databases using the keywords "Seckel + syndrome Seckel syndrome (SCKL) is a rare heterogeneous type of primordial dwarfism with frequency of less than 1 in 10,000 live births.
